The most famous technique for meditation is to focus on inhaling and exhaling your breathes. Count from 1 to 5 when you inhale, and do the same when you exhale. When your attention wanders, don't get frustrated, just simply redirect it to your breathes.. Practicing it daily and consistently will make you get better at it over time, and by then your efforts will pay off.
